Japan’s Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi has outlined a long-term fiscal expansion plan worth ¥370 trillion, extending through 2035. The roadmap sets out sustained government investment over the coming decade.
According to the report, the plan targets areas including artificial intelligence, defense and infrastructure. The emphasis reflects priorities aimed at strengthening the economy and national capabilities over the long term.
The announcement comes as Japan manages its first sustained period of inflation in roughly three decades, a notable shift for an economy long associated with low or negative price growth. Large-scale public investment forms part of the government’s response to changing economic conditions.
A commitment of this scale signals an ambitious approach to economic policy, tying near-term spending to long-range goals. The roadmap positions sustained investment as central to Japan’s strategy through the middle of the next decade.
